Overview
The 2026 edition of Paper Recycling Confex Asia , organised by Waste & Recycling magazine returns as a leading platform for the paper recycling industry, bringing together key stakeholders from across the value chain for high-impact discussions, market insights, and business opportunities.
Designed to connect paper recyclers, mill buyers, traders, pulp suppliers, chemical and additive suppliers, and solution providers, the confex delivers a focused environment for knowledge exchange, networking, and industry collaboration.
Following successful editions in Dubai and Bangkok, the previous edition in Bangkok welcomed 200+ delegates, 20+ speakers, 15+ exhibitors, and attendees from 10+ countries, reinforcing PRC Asia’s position as a growing business and knowledge-sharing platform for the Asian and global paper recycling market.
I’ve always been a strong supporter of this event, and I truly appreciate the format. It’s the best kind of networking - limited crowd, high-quality meetings. In my view, it’s exactly how such platforms should be run.
